Weird ZBrush/ZSphere problerm

WarrenM

So I was trying to learn a little about anatomy and proportions and such so I thought I would build a dude out of ZSpheres. That went pretty well so I saved him as a tool and had to go out. When I got back, I reloaded that tool into ZBrush and now I have a weird issue. Whenever I hit 'A' to preview the mesh, it does this weird pinch thing around the waist.

Has anyone ever seen this or know what the problem is? I'm perplexed...

This...



...becomes this...



There aren't any embedded ZSpheres that I can see and it looks pretty clean. Is this a bug in 4R2 or something?

Looks like it is using Classic Skinning now. Is that option toggled on under Adaptive Skin?

WarrenM

No, that's toggled off. I have it all set at Density:3, G Radial: 8, Max Twist: 0 and Proximity: 0.5 ...

Hmm, would you be able to post the ztl?

WarrenM

Sure ...

Thanks for looking!

It's looking normal on mine : /


I only get the exact result you're getting with classic skinning, so I'm not sure if that thing is somehow permanently stuck on in yours.

I assume you've restarted zbrush, so I'm not sure what the problem would be. The best I could do is ping-pong it back to you to see if you get the same results from my saved version of the tool. (the skin has also been appended as a subtool if not).

Hey, guess what I didn't try? Damn it! Sorry, restarting ZBrush fixed it.

I appreciate you taking the time to look though, really cool of you!
